First Person Project C.I.C

First Person Project is a not-for-profit community interest company. Our mission is to develop and embed a horizontal community network across the Liverpool City Region to improve mental health as a positive mediator of socially progressive change. Our vision is for Liverpool to have a self-sustaining, creative and socially innovative community approach to mental health action. We progress beyond mental health awareness to generate high impacting social value. We act as a thought catalyst, creating a safe environment where peoples’ minds can be challenged, inspiring disruptive change to occur. Much of the work carried out under the umbrella of “Mental Health Awareness” helps people reach fundamental levels of knowledge and awareness. First Person Project’s objective is to “Go Beyond Awareness” and help people move to a state of “Mental Health Action”. We all have mental health. Mental health means something different to each and every person. It is impossible to educate someone about their own mental health because it is personal and people are unique. What works for one person may not work for another. First Person Project provides people with the correct tools and guidance needed to allow them to navigate the stages of mental health awareness for themselves. First Person Project provides a safe space and constructive environment for people to learn how to reflect on their own experiences and personal situations. Our ultimate goal is to give people confidence and empowerment to develop their own methods for managing mental health.
